I need to drop 3 players and I’m not in dire need for HR but I need AVG and SB so I can drop Dietrich, Ellis, Mike Olt Alexi Amarista and Jace Peterson out of those 5 which three do you drop? Thanks, I’m leaning towards keeping Dietrich and Amarista but open to suggestion.

I’m not overly enthusiastic about any of those guys but if I had to choose, I agree with keeping Dietrich and Amarista as the two with the highest floor, particularly from a batting average standpoint.

I want to pick up Singleton because I think he comes up within a month or so. I picked up Kluber to start yesterday and he was outstanding. I also have Farnsworth as 1 of my 4 closers. I typically like have 4 closers in a 12 team league but Farnsworth hasn’t been doing much for me. Would you drop Kluber or Farnsworth for Singleton? Other closers are Hunter, Soriano, Robertson. Thanks Zach!

No, I wouldn’t. I don’t consider Singleton at the same level as a Gregory Polanco, in other words a player who is worth making roster room for in a 12-team mixed non-keeper at the expense of a high-upside SP who is already producing at the big league level or even a low-end closer who still owns the job.
